- “I bet he’s again going to say that he didn’t know.”
- “And I’ve never breathed air before.”
- “He’s again trying to make the idiots believe him so that he can promote again.”
- “But doesn’t GD not have any contract fees to worry about? Is he an endorsement model?”
- “But if he’s really innocent, don’t you think he would have denied the allegations in the press as soon as the reports first went out? You know he’s being coached to do all of this, so why are you guys believing him? LOL. Are you guys dumb?”
- “Sure…”
- “Can’t they tell by just testing his hair? Why go through a full investigation? LOL.”
- “Even if he is innocent, does this change anything? His fans will just have another grievance.”
- “The truth will come out once they test him. Since he says he is innocent, let’s wait.”
As this unfolding story continues to capture public attention, G-Dragon’s unequivocal denial and pledge for full cooperation with the authorities not only aims to clear his name but also addresses the concerns of fans and the general public.
